AP Approved, should i travel abroad?
Hi all,
I should be receiving my EAD/AP sometime next week, finally! after 4 months and a half of waiting...,... my only concern is traveling abroad (Mexico) since i have a misdemeanor on my record (case dismissed) and overstayed my visa for a year and a half from 2011-2013.
I haven't been to Mexico in 9 years and i feel like now i have a good chance to travel and make it back.
your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Infopass appointment requesting AP
Hey guys,
Just wanted to give you all an update about my info pass appointment I had this morning. I was not granted AP, I was told I needed to mail it in. The first person who checked me in was a male and he was very nice. Once he looked through all my papers he gave me a number and asked me to have a seat and that a case specialist would be calling me shortly. The set up reminded me of the DMV, I was the only one in waiting. I then heard a lady at another window asking the guy who checked me in what I needed, he told her I had was requesting AP to go see my brother who was ill and I had not seen. For over 2o years. Then my number got called, she looked through my docs and told me that at this time they were only approving dire cases, and she didn't think mind was considered such. She then continued to tell me that I needed to mail in the request, to expedite it so that the process could go much faster than the regular request because she did understand it was still an emergency. She handed me my papers back and said I'm sorry. At first I was very confused and disappointed. I called my attorney and gave her the news. She told me to stop by her office since it was close to where the oppointment took place and droop all the documents so she could expedite them right away. She told me not to worry that I'm about two weeks we should be hearing back and hopefully we would get good news.....

Just got approved
Hi Everyone!
I have have just been approved for AP on 4/7/2017. I applied with my sister and she just got notice that they are requesting additional information from her which is weird because we sent the exact same paper work. I only have until 7/7/2017 and I'm afraid she won't get approved in time for us to go together. Did anyone get requested more information?

Traveling to Mexico this Friday
Hi guys,
I will be traveling to Mexico this Friday. I'm currently adjusting my status after I traveled on AP almost 2 years ago. I'm married to an US citizen and I decided to apply for AP in addition to the other paperwork. I was very hesitant on traveling because of the new administration but after reading a couple of your success stories I decide to go for it. I will update you guys when I come back.
FYI- I'm from NYC.

FOLLOW UP FOR "currently out"
Hello, everyone I got many responses as to give follow-up with what happened. I created a an experience called "currently out" on 04/03/2017. Please look at this so you can see what happened.
My husband left Hermosillo, mex, traveled to mexico city, then to Orlando International yesterday on 04/09/2017.
When he arrived at Orlando international he called me to say he had arrived and would turn of his phone.
this happened at 11:04 am and at 11:49 am, he called me to say he got his parole stamp!
he said that when he arrived, the official took his fingerprints, took a pic then led him to a second room. in the second room, the official took all his docs, DACA card, Parole docs, and checked it and asked my husband "will you be adjusting your status?" my husband said he didn't know because his mother was ill and that was more on his mind. (in reality he wanted to say "yes" but we warned him not to because you don't know if the official can interpret that as bad or good)
so the official asked him if he was a Dreamer, my husband said yes, and then my husband got his stamp on both docs and passport. He was given one copy back and passport. He said thank you and my husband was on his way. My husband told me the officials that he interacted with were Hispanics and talked to him in Spanish and they were professional, they never treated him diff.
So, there you go! prayer does work, please pray to God, and always leave everything in his hands. He listens
please note my husband has a domestic violence record from 2010 and he almost not went because of that. But the forums here have helped us so much, and it wasn't easy to convince him to go.
Today we have an apt with a lawyer for adjustment of status. my husband said that his bag wasn't checked, he only brought a handbag. My husband also brought proof from a medical dr in mexico of his mother's medical condition, he also got his mother's birth certificate translated, and got a city's government of approval on the docs.
He left form 04/01 till 04/09. he traveled through aero México(very reliable) we prepared all docs for possible questioning. He also brought his police clearance letter and final decision form the court that the domestic violence case was not convicted.(before he left to mexico)
But please if you have reservations, please contact me. We live in southwest Florida, and one of the lawyer warned us that Tampa/Orlando are more relaxed with immigration and Miami is horrible!
But everything worked out well, I thank you all and please again, pray, pray, pray, believe in the impossible, because God will show you.
Thank you all

Tps adjusting status
Hello, has anyone with TPS trying to adjust status consulted with a lawyer about adjusting from inside the US without having to travel to your country based on the new 9th circuit ruling? Any advice or comments are greatly appreciated.

my experience so far.
Heya,
I want to add my two cents and hope my experience can help others as well. I will also update this upon arrival.
I have noticed that a lot of people are recommending that you schedule an appointment with a USCIS field office for the purpose of applying for AP. Be aware that field offices can only process expedited cases pertaining to immediate family (mother, father, brothers & sisters) not grandparents. I made the mistake of going that route which had me waiting for over a month and a half for the first available appointment. Not only was I informed by the person at the field office that they could not process my request, the application fee almost doubled in that time frame as well. So unless you're needing to see an immediate relative your best bet is to simply mail it in.
I mailed my application overnight on the 27th of December, and did not receive the notice form USCIS acknowledging that they had received my application until the 14th of January (by this point it was looking like they *were not* going to proceed with my case expeditiously which would have allowed me to travel before the inauguration of 45). By this point weeks turned into months and I had not received word of my application being granted and had essentially given up hope. However the Immigration Attorney I met with gave me the great suggestion of getting in contact with my legislators in Washington. I reached out to both my Senator and Representative and they were able to make an inquiry with USCIS on my behalf and within a week of having done so I had my AP in my hands. Your experience may vary with this but if you live in an area thats represented by pro immigrant legislators reaching out to them and having them contact USCIS on your behalf will be to your benefit. For example if you live in Oregon or Nevada, I highly recommend contacting the offices of Senator Wyden (OR) or Senator Cortez Masto (NV) for assistance.
I'm flying out this weekend and plan on returning the one after that. Once I'm back in The States I will add my experience in returning and going through customs.
Good luck to us all!

Advance Parole
Hi! I mailed my application form I 130, I-131, I-485 and I-765 all together last Wednesday and I'm just waiting for their mail saying they receive it. I was a j1 student back in 2012, overstayed my visa and now married to a US Citizen and has a one year old baby. I applied for Advance Parole because I have to go back to the Philippines in July for my sister's wedding. I am really hoping I get approved! My question is, does it matter how long did I overstayed whether i get approve or not? I have a clean record but with the present administration i am kinda worried and nervous! I am planning to travel with my one year old baby i have no idea how the process will be at the airport! Im hoping for some answers thank you guys!

Traveling abroad without AP in hand
Hi everyone, I'm planing to apply for the Advance Parole, however I still really nervous about it since me and my husband are planning to go abroad this May due family emergency.
So I'd like to ask you guys some questions regarding this AP,
1. how long does it takes for your AP to get approved ?
2. Are you able to go abroad with the AP approval when you return to the US ?
3. Are you able to go out the U.S and have someone mail the AP to you ? so you can return to the U.S with no problem.
Thank you so much guys!
